Out now: DAMn 36 – a Magazine on Contemporary Culture

Lots to see and read in the latest issue of very international, but Belgium based, DAMn – magazine on contemporary culture. One thing is clear – design is not about isolation, it is about relations. Relations with people, places, spaces, ideas, in short: the world. You find plenty of this in Damn.

Like architect Peter Zumthor, who thoroughly wants to know the surroundings in which he places edifices and always relates to local culture in his work. Or Chilean-Born New York-based artist Alfredo Jaar who comments on what is going on in the world. Or the project that is now developing in Ramallah, Palestine: a team of designers of the International Academy of Arts Palestine works together with Brussels Studio Devet to create the very first collection of Palestinian products of the current time.

DAMn is loaded with stories like these, and with mindshifting ideas, designs and contemporary products. Later more.
